Incident Management

Turn incidents into learning, not paperwork

Log falls, medication errors, and safeguarding concerns. Track review workflow, assign actions, notify CQC when required — with a full audit trail on every step.

Incidents dashboard showing open incidents, high severity, regulatory pending items, needs attention, and reporting tools

Structured Workflow

Log → Review → Actions → Close

CQC Notifications

Auto-flagged when required

Severity Classification

Low, moderate, high, critical

Audit Trail

Every action timestamped

Log, review, close — system-enforced

Every incident follows a four-stage workflow. Staff log the incident with structured fields — type, severity, people involved, immediate actions. The manager is notified automatically. Actions are assigned with deadlines, and nothing closes without a recorded outcome and lessons learned.

Captures: falls, medication errors, pressure damage, safeguarding, near-misses, behavioural incidents

CQC notifications — flagged automatically

The system flags potentially notifiable incidents based on type and severity. The manager reviews, confirms whether CQC notification is required, and tracks the submission with reference number and date. The final decision always stays with you — the system just makes sure nothing slips through.

Also includes: regulatory reporting (CQC, RIDDOR, ICO, Safeguarding), investigation records, evidence attachments

Every incident logged, reviewed, and closed.
